Chorizo Risotto

Ingredients

30g grated cheese (I used parmesan)

160g arborio rice.

160g of frozen peas defrosted in boiled water

1 brown onion

1 low salt chicken stock cube dissolved in 550ml boiled water

100g chopped chorizo

1 large dollop of garlic puree

Directions

I fried the onion and chorizo with olive oil in my pot until the onion was soft, mixed in the rice and garlic puree for a minute to coat the grains then added the chicken stock.

Then I mixed it up and brought it to the boil, put a lid on and put it in a preheated (fan) oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes.

I tested the rice was cooked and it was, but sometimes I have to add a splash more water, mix it and put it back in for a few minutes.

Then I stirred in the grated cheese and defrosted peas until it was all melted and mixed in.

I've made risotto this way with all sorts c v different meats and vegetables and l've a found it an easy-ish comfort food
